One of daily blog reads and long time blogging buddy, Sandy A La Mode has a regular "Flavors to Follow" series -- aptly named after her ice cream themed blog name -- and I just love following her flavors. She shares her picks of favorites from ankle booties to fashion all in the color maroon. She always does the best job of making a collection of items that fit each flavor. You can check out all the collections of her flavors over on her blog. I asked if she would mind If I took a spin at her "flavors to follow" series to share with you a new favorite of mine -- quartz jewelry...

It seems like this is the jewelry in middle school I would have called "crystals" and made fun of people for. Shame on me. Cause this jewelry rocks (pun very much intended). I love how it sparkles and shines and I especially love the druzy quartz with the rough finish. All can be so easily dressed up or dressed down. It's bling without being over dramatic. I am loving my massi quartz necklace via style mined! My jewelry box just recently sent me a memo that it needs more of it.
